Apart from weathermen, no one besides government bureaucrats can be so wrong, so often, yet still keep their jobs.
No one was ever fired for telling Americans that COVID lockdowns would last just “two weeks, to stop the spread” and “flatten the curve”.
If we’re being generous and call that a ‘miscalculation’, they were off by about 100 weeks, i.e. 50x, in most places before COVID restrictions ceased.
Then there was the infamous Obamacare website, healthcare.gov, which the ‘experts’ in government originally estimated would cost $93 million. That’s already an absurd price tag for a website. But in the end, it cost over $2 billion, and barely functioned.
